Motivaatioilmaston yhteys yhdeksäsluokkalaisten fyysiseen aktiivisuuteen ja viihtymiseen koulun liikuntatunneilla
2006
The aim of this study was to test a theoretical model, in which self-determined motivation was proposed to be constructed of the dimensions of perceived autonomy, social relatedness, and perceived competence. In order to achieve this aim the research involved the execution of three main goals. Firstly, self-determination theory was extended by integrating the two criteria of perceived competence, task and ego involvement, both adopted from the goal orientation model, to the dimensions of autonomy and social relatedness. To test this model, the Motivational Climate in School Physical Education Scale (MCSPES) was developed, and its psychometric properties were analyzed. Secondly, the study ex…
Dampness and student-reported social climate: two multilevel mediation models.
2021
Background Little previous research has analysed the relationship between schools' indoor air problems and schools' social climate. In this study, we analysed a) whether observed mould and dampness in a school building relates to students' perceptions of school climate (i.e. teacher-student relationships and class spirit) and b) whether reported subjective indoor air quality (IAQ) at the school level mediates this relationship. Methods The data analysed was created by merging two nationwide data sets: survey data from students, including information on subjective IAQ (N = 25,101 students), and data from schools, including information on mould and dampness in school buildings (N = 222). The …
Kulttuuriperinnön arvottaminen museoissa ja arkistoissa
2015
Tutkin tässä työssä kulttuuriperinnön arvottamista museoissa ja arkistoissa. Säilytyspäätöksiä, kuten hankintoja, seulontaa ja poistoja tehdessään museot ja arkistot joutuvat määrittelemään erilaisten aineistojen arvoa, minkä seurauksena tietyistä objekteista ja asiakirjoista tulee osa pysyvästi säilytettävää kulttuuriperintöä. Vertailemalla museoarvon ja arkistollisen arvon muodostumista, arvottamispäätöksiin vaikuttavia tekijöitä sekä arvottamisen kriteerejä, menetelmiä ja eettisiä kysymyksiä pyrin luomaan kokonaisvaltaisen kuvan siitä, miten kulttuuriperinnön arvo muodostuu. Tutkielman lähdekirjallisuus koostuu arvottamisen teorian kannalta keskeisestä suomalaisesta sekä kansainvälisestä…
Genome-wide analysis of Italian sheep diversity reveals a strong geographic pattern and cryptic relationships between breeds
2014
Summary Italy counts several sheep breeds, arisen over centuries as a consequence of ancient and recent genetic and demographic events. To finely reconstruct genetic structure and relationships between Italian sheep, 496 subjects from 19 breeds were typed at 50K single nucleotide polymorphism loci. A subset of foreign breeds from the Sheep HapMap dataset was also included in the analyses. Genetic distances (as visualized either in a network or in a multidimensional scaling analysis of identical by state distances) closely reflected geographic proximity between breeds, with a clear north–south gradient, likely because of high levels of past gene flow and admixture all along the peninsula. Sa…
Spatial Cognition 2020/1: Book of abstracts : August 2-4, 2021, University of Latvia
2021
Spatial Cognition is concerned with the acquisition, development, representation, organization, and use of knowledge about spatial objects in real, virtual or hybrid environments and processed by human or artificial agents. Spatial Cognition includes research from different fields insofar as they are concerned with cognitive agents and space, such as cognitive and developmental psychology, linguistics, computer science, geography, cartography, philosophy, neuroscience, and education. Research issues in the field range from the investigation of human spatial cognition to mobile robot navigation, including topics such as wayfinding, spatial planning, spatial learning, internal and external re…
Phenotypic spectrum and genomics of undiagnosed arthrogryposis multiplex congenital
2022
BackgroundArthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is characterised by congenital joint contractures in two or more body areas. AMC exhibits wide phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity. Our goals were to improve the genetic diagnosis rates of AMC, to evaluate the added value of whole exome sequencing (WES) compared with targeted exome sequencing (TES) and to identify new genes in 315 unrelated undiagnosed AMC families.MethodsSeveral genomic approaches were used including genetic mapping of disease loci in multiplex or consanguineous families, TES then WES. Sanger sequencing was performed to identify or validate variants.ResultsWe achieved disease gene identification in 52.7% of AMC index pati…

(1) Background: Assessments of intervertebral disc (IVD) changes, and IVD tissue adaptations due to physical activity, for example, remains challenging. Newer magnetic resonance imaging techniques can quantify detailed features of the IVD, where T2-mapping and T2-weighted (T2w) and Dixon imaging are potential candidates. Yet, their relative utility has not been examined. The performances of these techniques were investigated to characterize IVD differences in asymptomatic individuals with distinct physical activity histories. (2) Methods: In total, 101 participants (54 women) aged 25–35 years with distinct physical activity histories but without histories of spinal disease were included. T1…
A possible susceptibility locus for bipolar affective disorder in chromosomal region 10q25--q26.
2000
In an attempt to identify susceptibility loci for bipolar affective disorder, we are currently conducting a systematic genome screen with highly polymorphic microsatellite markers at an average marker spacing of 10 cM in a series of 75 families, comprising 66 families from Germany, eight families from Israel, and one family from Italy. The families were ascertained through index cases with bipolar affective disorder. The distribution of diagnoses is as follows: 126 individuals with bipolar I disorder, 40 with bipolar II disorder, 14 with schizoaffective disorder of the bipolar type, 40 individuals with recurrent unipolar depression, 51 with a minor psychiatric diagnosis, and two individuals…
